THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/2/13

  Another false positive? ABC:  SUPER FUN NIGHT started strong last night, holding onto 75% of its MODERN FAMILY lead-in for a 3.2 rating.  However, that’s the same number The Neighbors did in its debut last year–...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 5/1/13

  The nasty parade of season and series lows continued last night. FOX:  AMERICAN IDOL crossed 2 ugly milestones last night.   Its 2.8 rating (down half a point from last week), apart from being an all-time Wednesday lo...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/10/13

  Has American Idol finally leveled out? FOX:  After 3 weeks of consecutive drops that brought the show down 0.7 from a month ago, AMERICAN IDOL was up a tick last night to 3.2.  That’s still a full point below its...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 4/3/13

  A solid start for ABC’s new sitcom. ABC:  The night’s new configuration worked out well, at least for now.  THE MIDDLE was up 0.2 to 2.0 (still 15% below its season average), while SUBURGATORY, although sli...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 3/27/13

Even without The Voice as an excuse, most networks headed downward. FOX:  AMERICAN IDOL continued to plunge, down half a ratings point to 3.1, which happens to be just 0.1 ahead of X Factor’s average last fall. ABC:...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/27/12

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/20/13

Another night with little for the networks to cheer about. ABC:  The first 90 minutes of the night provided some good news, as THE MIDDLE rebounded a bit from last week’s low to 2.2 (up 0.3), THE NEIGHBORS was up 0.2 to ...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/13/13

A bad night for most. CBS:  SURVIVOR returned from its hiatus with its lowest cycle premiere ever, a 2.4 that was down 0.7 from last Spring’s start.  The show ran 90 minutes, and CBS filled in the gap with a 1.6 BIG BAN...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 2/6/13

February Sweeps stunts by NBC and CBS both fail. NBC:  The network aggressively promoted last night’s SVU because it featured Mike Tyson as a guest star, but the show dropped 0.2 to 1.5, in 4th place for its hour.  CHIC...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/16/18

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 1/9/13

ABC cleans up on the “specials” programmed elsewhere. ABC:  A great night all around.  THE MIDDLE kicked things off by rising 0.3 from its last airing to 2.4, followed by THE NEIGHBORS, up 0.4 to 2.0. MODERN FAMIL...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/12/12

…and this is why NBC won’t be running Revolution without a Voice lead-in anytime soon. NBC:  TAKE IT ALL, airing for the first time without the comfort of that Voice audience, collapsed by more than a ratings point...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 12/5/12

Thanks to Nielsen delays, Chicago Fire had to wait to get some unaccustomed good news. NBC:  CHICAGO FIRE benefits by not airing against a new CSI on CBS, because their audiences, while overlapping, prefer the latter when they...

THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 11/14/12

Another night to consider how low a rating can justify a back order these days. NBC:  WHITNEY returned to the NBC schedule last night, and the same nobody who watched it last year came back for more.  The show kicked off with...

UPDATED: THE SKED’S WEDNESDAY NETWORK SCORECARD – 10/24/12

World Series Game 1 won the night, but didn’t seem to affect anyone else very much. ABC:  After a slightly increased 2.6 (in final numbers) steady 2.5 from its THE MIDDLE lead-in, THE NEIGHBORS was up a tick to 2.0, stil...
